After the Asiana event I cought the tail end of a interview on fox I think, and the guest was trying to make the point that this should all be out, public knowledge, and you the passenger should be able to "interview" the pilot/ copilot, like you would a Dr, lawyer, that sort of thing. And I guess what, you could take another flight?
Thanks for the reply!

This brings up my original response of why risk a potential career move by not disclosing (read lying) about a failure?

They are only supposed to return five years from the date of the PRIA request but I've heard of airlines just sending the entire record because it's easier...better assume worst case.
